My Take
Armstrong is, for me, the definition of a one-role legend. Playing the title hero in 1963's Jason and the Argonauts means standing at the center of one of the greatest fantasy films ever made, crossing swords with Ray Harryhausen's immortal skeleton warriors. That his career faded fast afterward is the bittersweet part, but I'd argue anchoring a single enduring cult classic outlasts a hundred forgettable credits. Born John Harris Armstrong in St. Louis, he gave cinema a mythic image that still thrills audiences. He died in 1992, yet to me he remains forever frozen as that Argonaut captain.
